Questions
Duke Energy Progress serves Raleigh, and its solar riders are approved by the North Carolina Utilities Commission. State regulators have approved combining Duke Energy Progress and Duke Energy Carolinas into one utility, with a targeted effective date of January 1, 2027.
New residential customers go on Residential Solar Choice, which requires time of use pricing, adds a minimum monthly bill, and credits net exports each month at the utility's avoided cost rate. Customers already on the older net metering rider can stay on it until December 31, 2026, when they are moved to the Net Metering Bridge rider.
The City of Raleigh Planning and Development department issues residential solar permits, and most rooftop systems on one and two family homes can be permitted online through the Permit Portal. The electrical permit is applied for through the residential permit by listing the electrical subcontractor.
The federal residential clean energy credit, section 25D, ended for home solar expenditures made after December 31, 2025, under the law signed July 4, 2025. The IRS treats the expenditure as made when installation is completed, so a system completed in 2026 does not qualify even if it was paid for earlier.
